Well what are the choices on the form?

do you have a Bachelor or Master's degree? the questions in the forms are always basic - you just need to mention degree you have.

I think you tick PhD. Even if you're an MD, it's considered equivalent. Just specify that you finished med school.

No, a medical degree is treated by CIC as equivalent to a Bsc.  So 20 points.

• guidance is provided on how medical degrees should be considered; essentially medical
doctor degrees are generally considered first-level degrees in the same way as a Bachelor of
Law or a Bachelor in Pharmacology. Officers should be guided by how the local authorities
responsible for educational or training institutions recognize the credential.
